Yeah, I was wholly unimpressed with tf2center with this event. The second the teams were decided and we got into the mumbles, we were like "yo these teams are stupid". All the tf2c admins on our team (and it was a lot rofl) said it would be fine and we'd just play it. "The number of stars are even" means literally nothing when the enemy team has literally the best demoman, a top level heavy, a plat scout, and a plat spy.
I've rung medic for a steel eu highlander team and it was less painful than playing that game. Explaining what suicides are and where to hold are things that I should be doing in highlander newbie mixes, not a showmatch broadcasted to 500 people.
Makes me feel very uncertain about advanced lobbies and the skillgaps that will exist in them.
